The IHS PhD Application Fee Waiver awards up to $300 in application fee reimbursement to support you in your academic pursuits. With fewer application costs, you can apply to more programs and increase your chances of being accepted and funded in a graduate program.

Eligibility

The IHS Application Fee Waiver is available to undergraduates and recent graduates applying for full-time doctorate programs starting in the 2017-18 academic year. Here are a few additional requirements:

It’s essential that as an applicant, you show a demonstrated interest in focusing your studies on individual liberties and economic freedom.

All programs you are applying to should be in the humanities and social sciences.

All programs that you are applying to must be in the U.S. to be eligible for the application reimbursement.

The PhD Application Fee Waiver does not currently apply to business or law school program applications.

How it works

Complete the PhD Application Fee Waiver application, including a list of the schools you intend to apply to.
